The North America mancozeb market is expected to grow from US$ 212.46 million in 2022 to US$ 278.63 million by 2030. It is estimated to record a CAGR of 3.4% from 2022 to 2030.
Rising Demand for Mancozeb in Emerging Economies Fuels North America Mancozeb Market
Mancozeb is a broad-spectrum fungicide used to control a wide range of fungal diseases in various crops, including fruits & vegetables, nuts, and field crops. It is a relatively inexpensive and effective fungicide. The increasing population and urbanization in emerging economies have led to a surge in agriculture and food production. Mancozeb is a widely used fungicide and crop protection chemical that helps safeguard crops from fungal diseases. As emerging economies aim to enhance their agricultural output to meet the growing food demands of their populations, the demand for mancozeb has risen in tandem. Emerging economies are witnessing a shift toward more intensive and commercialized farming practices. As farmers in these regions adopt modern agricultural techniques, there is a greater reliance on agrochemicals such as mancozeb to ensure the health and quality of crops. This transition to modern farming practices is expected to drive the mancozeb market in emerging countries. In addition, export-driven agriculture in emerging countries focuses on maximizing crop yields to fulfill international orders efficiently. Mancozeb plays a crucial role in this context by protecting crops against fungal pathogens. The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) estimates that Brazil's agricultural exports, including processed products, have grown by an average of 9.4% annually from 2000 to 2021, accounting for 37% of Brazil's total exports. Brazil exports major agricultural commodities and food products to 222 countries and territories across the globe and is the world's third-largest exporter of agricultural products, following the European Union (EU) and the US. This dependence on increased productivity drives the demand for mancozeb as farmers seek to enhance their agricultural output and economic gains. Consumers are demanding more diversified and nutritious diets owing to rising incomes in emerging economies. This is leading to increased production of high-value crops, such as fruits & vegetables, which are more susceptible to fungal diseases. Many emerging economies have limited access to more expensive fungicides. Mancozeb is a relatively inexpensive fungicide, which makes it an attractive option for farmers in these countries. Thus, all the factors mentioned above are expected to bolster the mancozeb market during the forecast period.
North America Mancozeb Market Overview
The mancozeb market in North America is growing due to increased population and government subsidies, strong economies, and robust food safety nets. As per the reports of the US Department of Agriculture (USDA), North America ranks highest in food affordability. The agricultural sector in the US adds value to the economy of the country. In 2021, the contribution of agriculture to the US gross domestic product (GDP) was more than 0.7%. Hence, the demand for mancozeb is increasing in the agriculture sector in North America.
North America promotes the use of mancozeb to balance the growth of the agricultural and other sectors. The growth is mainly achieved using chemical fertilizers and pesticides required to sustain large-scale production. Mancozeb is used to control downy mildew in lettuce, onions, and brassica crops and also to control neck rot in onions. According to the Arizona Department of Agriculture, mancozeb is used consistently on a significant portion of acres of lettuces and onions and, to a lesser extent, on cabbage and other brassica crops. According to the National Onion Association, US farmers plant ~125,000 acres of onions each year and produce nearly 3374999.45 metric tons of onions per year. Thus, all the aforementioned factors are promoting the use of mancozeb in North America.
